re: Why was Kyler Murray a 1st round pick in the MLB?
Posted by Brian Wilson on 5/1/25 at 11:20 am
It was a ballsy high risk/ high reward thing. He's athletic enough to maybe work out and sell some tickets but his future was always football.
The downside is the A's don't sign him and lose the slot value $$ for that pick. The upside is they get a compensatory pick the following year, one slot after where they picked previously, in addition to their normal pick...Plus expanded draft pool $$.
You can argue it was a dumb move and a wasted pick but maybe the A's didn't see the right value in 2018 1st round and wanted a head start on 2019? It's still silly to waste the 9th overall pick though.

He grew up in Carville, LA and that is Iberville Parish brah. Nothing North LA about that. Probably would have never guessed it by his last name.
I'm not a fan of him either but at least get some facts straight before yelling at the clouds.

Rouse's most definitely does it. It's where I get mine. Whoever you spoke with lied. Now, there are times when they don't have some readily cut/available, but if you ask the people behind the counter they will cut it up while you wait or shop.

His job is to get this exact reaction out of people. So congrats on proving that he’s doing his job.

Please elaborate what you mean by "someone like you." Are you insinuating something?
ChatGPT is correct. It's not based on any one incident. The 2nd sentence of your ChatGPT response is what I was alluding to.

Its akin to a Hulk movie being portrayed as a 90lb girl, course thats probably in the works
Definitely don't disagree here. Facts are facts. The show creators say it was based on the increase in knife stabbing incidents across the UK was my point.
Call me naive, I guess I just don't understand why everything has to be made into an issue. Regardless of if it is or isn't based on real life...why can't it just be enjoyed for what it is and not made into a debate topic?
The way the episodes were shot with the one-shot camera technic should be way more talk-worthy than the alleged inspiration for the story...which conveniently enough is not even the largest part of the story.

It's not based on any one incident. It didn't take much googling to discover that. It's actually a really well done series.

How thick do you want it?
3 CF = 36 SF @ 1" thick
3 CF = 18 SF @ 2" thick

They now are ranked 14th/15th in cap space for 2025. I'm mildly impressed but so confused about what they're doing.

re: Netflix show "Adolescence" is maddening..
Posted by Brian Wilson on 3/17/25 at 7:59 am
This show was incredible. I couldn't get over the one shot episodes. It's very impressive to pull that off for that long of an episode AND to do it 4 times.

Kevin and Jeremy are great guys who love beer and are really good at it. I hope for nothing but success for them.
I send RC beers out of state often. The rest of the country needs to experience the great beer being brewed here.

Can be replaced for cheaper than you think. It's the labor that's high.

Ballpark guess is you will be around $20K all in for replacement of both indoor and outdoor units.
